Oli McBurnie and Swansea City kitman's brilliant gesture to fan who had a drink thrown at him in Cardiff

*Warning: Tweet below contains offensive language.*

Oli McBurnie has offered to donate a signed shirt to a Swansea City fan that was struck with a drink in Cardiff city centre.

A video that has been heavily shared on Twitter shows a man wearing a white Swansea shirt walking through St Mary Street in the Welsh capital before having a drink thrown over him.

Swansea's kitman Michael Eames retweeted the clip - which was uploaded with the caption "Jack b******" - and urged the victim to get in touch so he could send him a new Swansea shirt.

He wrote: "Anyone know the Swans fan? Tell him to get in touch. Will send him a new shirt to wear around Cardiff. #Jack."

What time is Ipswich Town v Swansea City and is it on TV?

And the Swans' top scorer McBurnie also got involved by asking his club's kitman to send the fan one of his signed shirts.

The Scot commented: "Send him a signed one of mine mate. Will look lovely in Cardiff."

It's understood the incident occurred before Cardiff City's Premier League clash with Liverpool, a game the Bluebirds went on to lose 2-0.
